69be8f1896 [PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.
It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it.  I've written a
program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.

The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
NetBSD 2.0 *).

The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:

1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).

2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
handled is not blocked.

The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
the way most Unix boxes work.

Unix boxes that were tested:  DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.

* NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
Linux.  So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
behaves differently here with #2.

485761bd6a [PATCH] x86_64: Tell VM about holes in nodes
Some nodes can have large holes on x86-64.

This fixes problems with the VM allowing too many dirty pages because it
overestimates the number of available RAM in a node.  In extreme cases you
can end up with all RAM filled with dirty pages which can lead to deadlocks
and other nasty behaviour.

This patch just tells the VM about the known holes from e820.  Reserved
(like the kernel text or mem_map) is still not taken into account, but that
should be only a few percent error now.

Small detail is that the flat setup uses the NUMA free_area_init_node() now
too because it offers more flexibility.

(akpm: lotsa thanks to Martin for working this problem out)

d3813fcf10 [PATCH] x86_64: Don't oops at boot when empty Opteron node has IO
The code to detect IO links on Opteron would not check
if the node had actually memory. This could lead to pci_bus_to_node
returning an invalid node, which might cause crashes later
when dma_alloc_coherent passes it to page_alloc_node().

The bug has been there forever but for some reason

6a1caa21d6 [PATCH] x86_64: avoid wasting IRQs patch update
The patch adds boundary check for the MAX_GSI_NUM.  Same as the update for
i386, the patch addresses a problem with ACPI SCI IRQ.  The patch corrects
the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided.  The
VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and
therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices.  The patch
corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

3d483f4757 [PATCH] Fix sync_tsc hang
sync_tsc was using smp_call_function to ask the boot processor to report
it's tsc value.  smp_call_function performs an IPI_send_allbutself which is
a broadcast ipi.  There is a window during processor startup during which
the target cpu has started and before it has initialized it's interrupt
vectors so it can properly process an interrupt.  Receveing an interrupt
during that window will triple fault the cpu and do other nasty things.

Why cli does not protect us from that is beyond me.

The simple fix is to match ia64 and provide a smp_call_function_single.
Which avoids the broadcast and is more efficient.

This certainly fixes the problem of getting stuck on boot which was
very easy to trigger on my SMP Hyperthreaded Xeon, and I think
it fixes it for the right reasons.

So I know the assembler will do the right thing specify the size

Make load_segments use an input constraint, and delete the macro fun.
Without having to reload %cs like I do on i386 this code is noticeably

When the x86_64 cpu hotplug changes went in it added a check in
default_do_nmi() which kills NMI delivery on any CPU but the BSP.

The NMI watchdog is brought up quite some time before the online bit is set
in num_online_cpus so this won't work very well.  The nmi watchdogs on cpus
that are not BSP will never be reprogrammed and no NMIs.

Why was this check added? How does an offlined cpu receive an NMI?

context and disabling the apics is complicated code.
So unconditionally skip machine_shutdown in machine_emergency_reboot
on x86_64.

7c9a90073c [PATCH] x86_64: Fix reboot_force
We only want to shutdown the apics if reboot_force
is not specified.  Be we are doing this both
in machine_shutdown which is called unconditionally
and if (!reboot_force).  So simply call machine_shutdown
if (!reboot_force).  It looks like something
went weird with merging some of the kexec patches for
x86_64, and caused this.

59586e5a26 [PATCH] Don't export machine_restart, machine_halt, or machine_power_off.
machine_restart, machine_halt and machine_power_off are machine
specific hooks deep into the reboot logic, that modules
have no business messing with.  Usually code should be calling
kernel_restart, kernel_halt, kernel_power_off, or
emergency_restart. So don't export machine_restart,
machine_halt, and machine_power_off so we can catch buggy users.

9fb1759a31 [PATCH] x86_64: TASK_SIZE fixes for compatibility mode processes
A malicious 32bit app can have an elf section at 0xffffe000.  During
exec of this app, we will have a memory leak as insert_vm_struct() is
not checking for return value in syscall32_setup_pages() and thus not
freeing the vma allocated for the vsyscall page.

Check the return value and free the vma incase of failure.
